The dude who wrote this story sounds like a pretentious douchebag. And I haven't even gotten through 25% of the article yet.

EDIT : But after finishing the article, it does give a nice look at how this picture spread and what the picture is actually of. It just seemed written very much like a story about him, and not the picture itself.

I'm not sure why they're saying that it's a reflection on the window, it's quite obviously just the light from the streetlamps reflecting off of the wet street, not the window. If they were reflecting off of the window they likely wouldn't be lined up with the street like that either, or continually corresponding to the same relative position to each street lamp. If they were simply a multiple reflection on the window as well they wouldn't each be a different shape.

I think its funny that it spread the way it did. It would have been nothing if she had just put it up herself. So the lack of computer skills led this to being bigger and reaching more people because of it.

How dare he calls Reddit a cesspool. Its a beautiful place that does some beautiful things. Yes, it has its dark areas, but so does everything else. He wrote a fine article, but he best be careful in how he describes Reddit. Should the Reddit Army bombard his phone and email over his mistake?
